Is there any procedure / video out there for replacing the seals in the transaxle? I have done this on other transmissions but just looking for any tips and tricks for the 914.

I disconnected the CV joints from the stub shafts, moved them to the side. I removed the two bolts hiding under the CV grease (17mm? if I remember correctly) that hold stub shafts to the differential. I inspected the stub axles for any damage none of which was found. I then used a seal puller to remove bolt axle(radial) seals. I then when to the local hardware store to find a bolt long enough so I could use a seal installer from a timing belt service kit I have. I then found a installer that matched the outer diameter of the seals. From that point I pressed in each seal to the same depth as the original VW marked seals that were in the transmission from factory haha. I did this all in the car using my QuickJack lift. I also purchased new CV gaskets and new schnorr washers to finish the install.
